Tiger going over Low Ki?

What the fuck.

**Derek** · 01-04-2009, 02:37 AM

I have a feeling that Low-Ki's time is done in New Japan.

**Bruiser Blasko** · 01-04-2009, 02:38 AM

That blows. Since some of his time was spent at home cuz of the knee injury.

**Derek** · 01-04-2009, 02:42 AM

Well, I don't see why they would keep him around after dropping the title back to Tiger Mask

smitlick · 01-04-2009, 03:15 AM

damn Tiger won... Nice to MCMG win though. Hopefully this means more New Japan stuff for them.

**Bruiser Blasko** · 01-04-2009, 04:29 AM

Team 3D winning is fucking baffling.

**Bruiser Blasko** · 01-04-2009, 05:28 AM

10. IWGP Heavyweight Title: Hiroshi Tanahashi beat Keiji Muto All Japan (c) () with the High Fly Flow to become the 50th champion.

Saw it coming imo.

**Derek** · 01-04-2009, 05:31 AM

That's the show.

Suprised to see the two TNA teams walk out with Tag Gold.

I wish they would have kept the belt on Low-Ki a little longer, but I have a feeling that Low-Ki is done in New Japan.

I didn't get the official time because one of the sites I was getting results from didn't say. If the result of that match is wrong, blame them. It's 4:30 in the morning for me and I'm really tired. Can't wait to see all the matches once they are posted. It looks like it was a phenominal show.

That is a very large amount of title changes for 1 show, wouldn't have expected anything else though.
